our worst fears confirmed!
August 23, 2010
The man bag was indeed part of The Iker™ at the Friday luncheon! While others may not leave home without their mobile or wallet carried in their hands a la Sergio, Iker keeps everything safe and secure in a purse. Sigh…
And what I didn’t notice last time: the matching belt! The shirt and belt match so perfectly it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Iker cut the bottom off his shirt (remember, he does that on a regular basis) and stayed up late one night making it into a belt to match.
Unfortunately, that shows that he puts a lot of thought into his outfits, and so when the end result is a bit of a disaster, it tugs at my heart…
But on the bright side, that face is so handsome it almost makes up for the outfit.

Oh god Iker why?!!! But like I said before my eyes are on the face, it more than makes up for anything he wears. I don’t think the polo is that bad, its the other things ( manbag , belt/shorts? , flipflops).
He needs one of those what not to wear/makeover shows but I love him for it, it makes him more endearing.
Ay Iker! Oh *long sigh* Now there is evidence you do think about what you are wearing. And it is all so wrong!!!
I used to think it was almost cute – at least forgivable – “oh he is such a guy – he puts on the first thing he picks up – he’ll buy whatever is the most comfortable etc…
I even forgave the murse – it shows his self confidence – lack of intimidation and good organization (how many times has my nonXabi bf asked me to put his stuff in my bag)
But this changes everything!!!
(Do we also need to talk about the white sunglasses?)
Iker took color coordinated/matching pieces to a new level with that ensemble. Wasn’t he also wearing flip-flops during that lunch? He dresses like a typical college boy in Manila. Thank god he’s cute, so he’s forgiven.
Oh Iker. You shall never change. Remain precious by being yourself. You’re a saint. Forgive me for being so amused.
I think the belt disturbs me the most, because the bag could almost pass for a camera bag. It does look like he made the belt! Not unlike that scarf…you know the one I’m talking about.
Are those the sunglasses Sergio had on in his picture of his “new look”?
I think Sergio’s glasses have goldtone metal frames – Iker’s are white plastic (or possibly silvertone metal?). I also have that exact same pair of sunglasses (as Sergio) except that mine are from Victoria’s Secret. Scary.
I personally think that these shorts (thanks God they are not denim after all!!) go well with this shirt and the shirt goes well with the belt… so… this outfit would be alright for everyday use somewhere on a resort.:) But surely it’s not proper for going to a restaurant.:) Anyway, looking at Iker is always pleasant for the eye… 🙂
Btw, I got so scared when I got the mail with the title of the article! I thought they’ve sold Sergio to Chelsea. lol at least that’s my worst fear!!))
Oh, Iker. I just have to say the title of this post got me really nervous, I thought they had sold Rafa or something terrible like that.
You know what, I’m not gonna go too hard on Iker this time, solely because when you stare at his face for so long, you end up fixated on his handsomeness amidst an unclear pink haze. Conclusion: shirt/belt/manbag = invisible. This is a good thing. 🙂
I think I’m sufficiently inured to fratboy fashion that the overdose of Abercrombie and pink doesn’t immediately kill the look for me – I just think “at least he didn’t pop the collar!”
The shorts, on the other hand, are a dealbreaker. As is the manbag. Seriously, Iker, it’s just lunch; you don’t need to bring everything with you!
If this were cropped at, say, elbow-level, he’d look pretty good.
I actually don’t mind the shirt but that purse…it needs to go now!
